EA Says 2021 will be another big year for The Sims 4
Time to speculate. I am hopeful we'll finally get cars and sims we're not playing asking our sims to marry them in 2021 https://twitter.com/TheSimCommunity/status/1324534806550642688?s=20

Who will be the new Senior Producer ? SimGuruGraham or SimGuruNinja ? Or will SimGuruGrant be back ?
Grant and Ninja are pretty controversial figures in the franchise so I guess maybe Graham?
Grant is only "controversial" to a small subset of the Sims community. He still got promoted on to other things so apparently, that has no affect on Maxis jobs.
But I'd say Ninja is a "fan favorite" so to speak, and has seemed to be more at the forefront of things for over a year, so I wouldn't be surprised if he was next in line. I like him having more of a direct influence on the game, though. He was lead producer on the Vampires pack and also did Jungle Adventures and Parenthood.
@LiELF SimGuruGrant throwing tantrums on twitter and fighting with Simmers was absolutely unprofessional. I don't see how EA would allow someone so childish be in such a high position.
And Ninja became kind of controversial during the whole Spark'd thing but also during the journey to Batuu fiasco. He seems to have taken a step back now but who knows. I'm sure a lot of people still like Ninja. And yeah as you said he was at the forefront of a lot of things in 2020. Maybe he is next in line
He wasn't being childish (that I saw) he was answering questions honestly and Simmers didn't like the answers so they whined and started acting like Karens and went into toxicity mode. I don't think anyone should have to tolerate that, no matter who you work for, big corporate or not. People can be abominable.
It's a really bizarre phenomenon. Some people would rather be fed sugar-coated half-truths to be told what they want to hear rather than treated like adults with direct honesty. And then the same people complain that devs are too sickly sweet with company double-talk and aren't honest, lol.
Regardless of how anyone views it, he got promoted and moved on. He still makes occasional statements, though. I personally suspect he's leading the new team for Sims 5 because they've been pretty vague about his position.
